"Sandi is probably one of the foremost authorities on scrapbooking and the use of die cuts...Each is well photographed."--Craft Digest What makes this guide to scrapbooking better than and different from any other? The creativity of author Sandi Genovese (host of DIY Scrapbooking, a daily television show on the DIY Network) and her unique cutouts--easy, imaginative patterns and templates that bring style to any scrapbook. Simply follow directions for transferring them onto tracing paper and applying them to spreads. Then add special features such as embossing, die-cuts, and stickers. Use basic design principles--color, placement, and balance--to develop themes for pages and spreads. Some of the ideas you'll love using are Boo Boos, a colorful band-aid covered layout; Wreaths, so perfect for a number of occasions; and A Star is Born, just the thing to celebrate that recital or school play.
